Hi Daniel,
        It means that libvirt (and other related) libs should be installed on 
both client and server?
 Client is the machine from where connection is made(using $uri) to Remote 
machine(server).

Regards,
Rawat

This is showing that libvirt failed to connect to the remote host.
This is not likely to be related to the Perl bindings. You should check the 
same conection using virsh. eg

  virsh -c qemu+ssh://[email protected]/system?no_verify=1 uri

This error is because you failed to connect, but your script ignored the error 
and carried on running, instead of exiting.

You need to exit at this point, since you have no valid connection
